Animal Crossing: City Folk idea topic

Eh, I'm new to the Wii Discussion forum, but I'm sure this would go here. If not, lock please.
Basically, the point of this topic is to discuss ideas we have for the new upcoming Animal Crossing game, which I hope that I'm not the only one hyping. Feel free to post your ideas, comment on other peoples ideas, and give constructive critisism on what wouldn't work with an idea, and possibly how to fix it.

My ideas:
-You could throw garbage/stuff you don't want in the ocean and streams.
-Every month there would be a clean up week in the town, where the townsfolk would pick weeds and clean out the lake and streams, and any stuff that someone threw in there would be taken out and put on a lost and found table.

Well I for one can't wait for the game. I think they need to have a few things.
1)Bigger house, I think you should be able to get at least 3 stories, and the basment.
2)Lots of furniture that refrences other games. Like a mario set, a zelda set, ect.
3)Furniture with a purpose, such as a blender you can but fruit into and get a fruit drinks.
4)More trees, I like my orchard but it needs more.
5)More colored flowers to breed. That was my favorite past time, getting blue rose was so hard.......

1. More animals.
2. More fruit.
3. Better A.I. that allows the villagers to go shopping and mail letters at the town hall.
4. More traps (not just pit falls but also bombs (! (!!!)).
5. Your own army of Menos Grande.

More things to do so the game doesn't get repetitive after a week.

The ability to raise a gyroid Army and lay seige on other people's cities.

The ability to not look like a retard.

The ability to go through the epic story line of The Crossing.

DAMN GYROIDS TURN US INTO ANIMALS.
THEY TOOK MY EYE, DAMNIT!

The only thing I can think of right know is better Birthdays.

* More Nook store upgrades

* Return Anonymity to Bulletin Board posts.. one really fun thing about GC animal crossing was that I could make a "I buried ____ in acre A2" post and make up items that don't exist such as "Yoshi Statue" etc. to trick my sister. Of course she caught on but it was fun ! They ruined that in the DS one by automatically posting the name on every human post..

* Wish they would bring back the house Gyroid, it would be easier to sell your stuff like you could in the GC version, instead of saying "Okay, now drop 1,000 bells and I'll drop the item" and possibly be swindled..

*House door pattern. I forget if they took that out in the DS version, I say that only because I remember you had to talk to your gyroid to place/change/remove a pattern on your house door.

*Some of the fictional places the animals have referenced to. Do you remember when they used to joke about a town mall or pool or other stuff? Maybe they could actually put something like that in.

*New holdable items like the shovel.. perhaps a Lawnmower or a pogo stick... the possibilities..... Spray paint can for custom graffiti perhaps??

*You know how they have a haircut place to alter your hair now? Well It'd be awesome if they had a "Plastic Surgery" place where you could alter your face (and gender? hahaha) whenever you wanted. Perhaps they could make some kind of limitation that if you altered your face too many times you'd no longer have a nose, and eventually you'd have the face of a gyroid. Then you'd have to go to the Prosthesis Shop in town and buy custom eye, nose, mouth, etc. prosthetics for ultimate customization... Okay I admit that's overboard.. more masks will do.

Ability to get an animal roommate.

Adding to this:

and you or any other human player in your town can wind up getting the dumped items on their fishing line similar to the way you can wind up hooking old boots and tires.

Separate inventory space for tools.

Oh god yes.

1.) Make the game less repetitive
2.) Make the animals smart
3.) Make furniture that is actually useful
4.) Make the game fun
5.) Make the game last more then a week

I doubt it'd happen, but I'd like to be able to eventually move into the titular "city". When I first saw the title, I figured they were breathing new life into the game by moving the whole thing to the city, but it seems that the city is just the focal point of most of the new content. I figured you'd of been able to get an apartment, all four players either being in the same one or in four rooms on a floor, with an elevator/stairway leading straight to the bottom floor(no worries about random other people), though I guess it would make moving in-out for other people more complicated if houses can't pop out of nowhere, which I think they did before, right?

Then again, maybe they'll surprise us all and give us an apartment with multiple floors or such as a final upgrade from Nook, though that'd distance you from the town that the game is focused on too much. The game in Japan is probably still called Animal Forest, so they can't ditch the forest entirely!

F.U.N,
what's that spell?
Fun!

this post is completely related to the topic

Definitely a big yes there.

Or make Anonymity an option, so if you wanted to do the "I buried something somewhere" post you can turn Anonymity on, or if you want people to know you posted the message you can turn it off.

id like to see online minigames.
maybe you could bet bells or items and the winner takes all or something?

also, a plastic surgery place was mentioned, how about choosing what race you are?

-Being an animal. I've always wanted to be a furry.

-Faster transportation?

-The front-o-the-house Gyroid.

-Shy-Guy mask item?

-More references to other Nintendo games. Pet Kirby, anyone?

Those are my ideas.
